The only preferred modes of payment going forward, according to Kenya Railways, will be Mpesa or debit/credit cards.

This move is among the steps KR is taking to help realize smooth operations for its trains that ply between Mombasa and Suswa termini through Nairobi terminus.

Madaraka charges Ksh.1000 for adults from Nairobi to Mombasa and back, with children between 5 and 13 years paying Ksh.500.

It also operates intercounty trains with stations at Voi, Mtito Andei, Athi River, Emali, Kibwezi, Miaseny and Mariakani.
